InFocus IN76 Review
InFocus debuted the new IN76 HD Projector at the CES show in January and has made a splash ever since.So what are the details? Well its a native 1280 x 720 DLP projector with a Texas Instruments DarkChip engine.
It has a six-segmant colour wheel which combats the "rainbow effect" that some DLP projectors suffer from.
Also, it has a 12 element all-glass 1.3: 1 zoom lens. The video processing is handled y Pixelworks' DNX technology.
The maximum brightness is 1000 ANSI Lumens and has a contrast ration of 3000:1.
InFocus were determined to bring a HD projector to the market that was full of features but at a reasonable cost. They've certainly done it with the InFocus IN76.
They've also created a damn sexy HD projector. Many of the HD projectors created these days are a boring grey box that reminds me of a sectretary in an A-line skirt counting paper-clips - not the IN76 - its more of a super-sassy administrator that teases you by showing a bit more leg than you were expecting.
